Nvidia drivers are nonfree, stable and fast.
ATI drivers from ATI are nonfree, unstable and slow.
ATI drivers from DRI are free, stable and fast, but support only cards
up to the 9250. For newer cards there is a reverse engineering project
that seem to procced quite well and might lead to a DRI driver in some
years.
Intel drivers from DRI are free, stable and fast.
3Dlabs claims to have nonfree drivers for the Wildcat Realizm.
For their Wildcat VP they once gave specs to a single DRI develeoper and
have since ceased to cooperate with the DRI project. 3dlabs themselves
doesn't offer drivers, but gave the specs to a company that sells
drivers.
